Men! Men! In 3-D"; "It's Rita on the prowl!"; "Rita in 3D!"; "Songs your mother never taught you!"; "The Heat Is On - On The Way!"; "The Sin-Chaser - The Dame Chaser!"; "Entertainment Is Her Business!"; "Spontaneous Combustion!"; "She's the gal with a little something extra for the boys!"; "Based on a story by W. Somerset Maugham") starring Rita Hayworth (in the title role as Sadie Thompson), Jose Ferrer, Aldo Ray, Russell Collins, Diosa Costello, Charles Bronson (in his second credited movie role!), and Henry Slate. Note that there was an silent version of this movie in 1928 under the title "Sadie Thompson", starring Gloria Swanson and Lionel Barrymore, and a sound version of this movie, under the title "Rain" in 1932, starring Joan Crawford, and Walter Huston! Also note that this movie was filmed in Hawaii on Kauhi Hanelei Pier, Lamahai Beach, Coco Palms, Kalapaks, and the former Charles Rice home. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this movie was originally in 3-D. The studios created both 3D and 2D posters and lobby cards (the 2-D posters and lobby cards were for theaters that lacked the 3-D equipment). This poster is from the "2-D" release. Also note that this poster has never been machine folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were machine folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT machine folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It has slight discoloration along the lower edge (see our image). It has some smudges scattered in various areas and some scuffing in portions of the inset images, and some blank border defects. Please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this item prior to placing a bid. Learn More about condition grades
